Abstract: The ecological crisis has caused destructions such as global warming, forest fires, droughts, floods, erosion, and pollution. It encourages people, including the tarekat followers, to make efforts to improve or harmonize ecology. This article describes the ecological harmony among the followers of Qadiriyah wa Naqsabandiyah in Lalang Tanjung, Riau. A qualitative method was employed in this study because it is considered more appropriate to describe the ecological harmony phenomenon among the tarekat followers. An important finding of this research is that the concern of Qadiriyah wa Naqsabandiyah followers in Lalang Tanjung on the ecology has long been practiced for a long time. They believe that religion basically teaches its people to preserve nature. The ecological harmony practiced by  the tarekat followers is influenced by the spirituality of religion and the local wisdom in which they live and grow. They put forward four concepts in protecting the ecology, namely tree, sanitation, water, and forest/garden. These concepts inform about the Tarekat followers’ behavior and meaning behind it. These four concepts have become their ecological harmony philosophy.الملخص: وقد سببت الأزمة البيئية في العديد من الكوارث الضارة مثل الاحترار العالمي وحرائق الغابات وحالات الجفاف والفيضانات والتحات والتلوث. شجعت هذه الحالة العديد من الأطراف على بذل الجهود لتحسين البيئة أو تنسيقها، بما في ذلك من قبل أتباع الطرق الصوفية. توضح هذه المقالة الانسجام البيئي وسط أتباع الطريقة القادرية والنقشباندية لالانغ تانجونغ، رياو. ويتم استخدام المدخل النوعي في هذه الدراسة لأنه يعتبر أكثر ملاءمة لوصف ظاهرة الانسجام البيئي بين أتباع هذه الطريقة الصوفية. ومن النتائج الهامة  التي توصل إليها هذا البحث أن رعاية أتباع الطريقة  القادرية والنقشباندية لالانج تانجونج تجاه البيئة قد تم القيام بها منذ فترة طويلة. وهم يعتقدون أن الدين يعلم معتنقيه أساسا للحفاظ على الطبيعة. وانسجام البيئة التي يقوم بها أتباع هذه الطريقة يتأثر روحانية الدين والحكمة المحلية التي تعيش فيها الجماعة. قدّم أتباع الطريقة  القادرية والنقشباندية لالانغ تانجونج أربعة مفاهيم في حماية البيئة. المفاهيم الأربعة هي مفهوم الشجرة والصرف الصحي والمياه والغابات / الحديقة.  في كل من هذه المفاهيم هناك مذهب السلوك والمعنى الذي يصبح فلسفة الانسجام البيئي لهذه الجماعة.Abstrak: Krisis lingkungan telah menyebabkan bencana yang merugikan banyak pihak, seperti pemanasan global, kebakaran hutan, kekeringan, banjir, erosi, dan polusi.

Psalm 104 is a majestic hymn to creation, a dynamic corollary to the more formal presentation of the creation of the world in Genesis 1. Reflection upon some of the passages provides us with insight into the biblical author’s appreciation for nature, an attitude that needs to inspire us in this age of ecological crisis. Though the biblical text is unaware of such an ecological crisis; nonetheless, passages shine forth that can speak to us in our modern age of global warming and environmental collapse.

The total area of the forest fund of Ukraine is 10400000 hectares, of which 9600000 hectares are covered with forest vegetation. In total, 15.9 % of the country's area is covered by forests. This figure is growing: in 50 years the area of forests increased by 21 %, almost three times increased stock of wood – it is estimated within 2102 million cubic meters. But this is not enough. Today there are a number of problems connected with forestry, for example: mass destruction of forests, lack of forest development strategy, low level of forest resources use, lack of reliable information about the biomass condition, forest fires. According to the State Agency of Forest Resources of Ukraine, the volume of unauthorized felling has been steadily decreasing for a long time, during 2005-2010. However, already in 2011 it was 25,100 cubic meters, which is 2.2 thousand more than in the previous year, 2007. However, this statistic, too, is mostly about illegal logging by local people, so it reflects very small volumes. The largest number of poached logging is recorded in the Lviv region. For example, in 2018 in the region 12,047 cubic meters of wood were illegally cut, and the figures do not stand still. As a consequence, this situation over time can lead to environmental degradation, increased water and wind erosion, degradation of agricultural land. The forest industry is one of the promising industries in Ukraine, for which it is advisable to use the tools of geographic information systems that provide detailed and necessary information, which greatly simplifies the work in research, analysis and prediction of the dynamics of the forestry fund of Ukraine. With the help of geospatial analysis tools we open up new horizons in the development and organization of forestry production, control and management of forests at all levels. This is why in today's conditions the introduction of geoinformation technologies can not only save money, but also save large areas of the forest fund and hundreds of diligent villages, settlements and cities. The events that took place in April 2020 showed that the lack of active monitoring of burning areas has painful consequences. The fire destroyed almost 40 houses in the resettled villages, Lichmans Srednyaya Rudnya, Nizhnyaya Rudnya and Verkhnyaya Rudnya, 45 buildings were saved, about 5 % of the protected area, 11500 hectares in the southwestern part of the Chernobyl Reserve were affected. These villages in Zhytomyr region were resettled after Chernobyl. More than 2000 people and 120 units of equipment were involved in extinguishing the fireі.

Abstract: Land Acquisition for public interest in Kulon Progo Regency is a procedure that must be implemented before initializing the new airport, which will replace the function of Adisutjipto airport. It facing much rejection during the process, so that it takes long time in completion. That also causing the identification and inventory process to be inhibited so that the land valuation process can’t be done perfectly. Their compensation won’t be given directly to the land owner, but through the consignment procedure that deposited at the District Court. This research is conducted by descriptive qualitative method. The results show that the assessment of the land is done well, although there is a discretionary decision, so that re-assessment is conducted in different time. The payment mechanism of compensation through consignment also done according to procedures, although the requirement of rejection letter from the party who is not eligible can’t be fulfilled, because it can be suspended due to the large interest for the land acquisition process of the new airport. Keywords: land assessment, consignment, land acquisition Intisari: Pembangunan bandara udara baru yang dapat menggantikan fungsi bandara udara Adisutjipto sudah tidak dapat dielakkan lagi. Pembangunan bandara udara baru dilaksanakan melalui prosedur Pengadaan Tanah untuk Kepentingan Umum. Penolakan terhadap pembangunan bandara udara terjadi dalam kegiatan tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui mekanisme penilaian dan mekanisme konsinyasi terhadap bidang tanah yang mengalami penolakan oleh pihak yang berhak pada kegiatan pengadaan tanah tersebut. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian deskriptif dengan pendekatan studi kasus dan pendekatan perundang-undangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam pelaksanaan penilaian bidang tanah secara keseluruhan sudah sesuai prosedur yang ada, akan tetapi terdapat putusan diskresi terhadap bidang tanah yang sebelumnya tidak dapat dilakukan penilaian secara keseluruhan kemudian dilakukan penilaian ulang di luar waktu yang telah ditentukan. Mekanisme pembayaran ganti kerugian melalui konsinyasi sudah sesuai dengan peraturan perundang-undangan yang berlaku, hanya dalam proses permohonan registrasi konsinyasi terdapat satu syarat terkait dengan surat penolakan dari pihak yang berhak yang tidak dapat dilampirkan, hal tersebut dapat ditangguhkan mengingat besarnya kepentingan kelancaran proses pengadaan tanah pembangunan bandara udara baru ini. Kata Kunci: penilaian bidang, konsinyasi, pengadaan tanah

Global warming has potentially catastrophic impacts in Amazonia, while at the same time maintenance of the Amazon forest offers one of the most valuable and cost-effective options for mitigating climate change. We know that the El Niño phenomenon, caused by temperature oscillations of surface water in the Pacific, has serious impacts in Amazonia, causing droughts and forest fires (as in 1997-1998). Temperature oscillations in the Atlantic also provoke severe droughts (as in 2005). We also know that Amazonian trees die both from fires and from water stress under hot, dry conditions. In addition, water recycled through the forest provides rainfall that maintains climatic conditions appropriate for tropical forest, especially in the dry season. What we need to know quickly, through intensified research, includes progress in representing El Niño and the Atlantic oscillations in climatic models, representation of biotic feedbacks in models used for decision-making about global warming, and narrowing the range of estimating climate sensitivity to reduce uncertainty about the probability of very severe impacts. Items that need to be negotiated include the definition of "dangerous" climate change, with the corresponding maximum levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Mitigation of global warming must include maintaining the Amazon forest, which has benefits for combating global warming from two separate roles: cutting the flow the emissions of carbon each year from the rapid pace of deforestation, and avoiding emission of the stock of carbon in the remaining forest that can be released by various ways, including climate change itself. Barriers to rewarding forest maintenance include the need for financial rewards for both of these roles. Other needs are for continued reduction of uncertainty regarding emissions and deforestation processes, as well as agreement on the basis of carbon accounting. As one of the countries most subject to impacts of climate change, Brazil must assume the leadership in fighting global warming.

The looming possibility of global warming raises legitimate concerns for the future of the forest resource in Canada. While evidence of a global warming trend is not conclusive at this time, governments would be wise to anticipate, and begin planning for, such an eventuality. The forest fire business is likely to be affected both early and dramatically by any trend toward warmer and drier conditions in Canada, and fire managers should be aware that the future will likely require new and innovative thinking in forest fire management. This paper summarizes research activities currently underway to assess the impact of global warming on forest fires, and speculates on future fire management problems and strategies.

Covid 19 is an unfortunate situation that nevertheless could be said to have produced environmentally beneficial results. It has forced Africans and humanity in general to change attitudes and lifestyles that were hitherto inimical to the environment to ones that could restore the environment. For the sake of survival, consumerism which is one of the greatest hallmarks of Africans and a source of depletion of earth resources has given way to frugality; transportation activities that is one of the greatest sources of global warming have significantly reduced and most importantly human population which has terrifically posed as a threat to the survival of the environment is being forcefully checked. These and many other life changes in human beings, though accidental, are healing the environment, and the paper argues that if they are sustained, the environment will totally be restored to sound health. Most of these changes will naturally be sustained even after the Covid 19 pandemic, for as Aristotle acknowledged, actions perpetrated for a long time become habituated. However, I believe that if conscious efforts are also made to sustain these changed attitudes, then the environmental crisis currently enveloping the globe will be halted. The paper using philosophical methods of criticality and argumentation concludes that Covid 19 though tragic for humans, nevertheless has lessons that could be useful for the present drive to sustain the environment and by that prevent future pandemic that could be environmentally related. The paper argues vehemently that African governments must steer their developmental agenda towards environmental sustenance in line with Covid 19 seeming directives to humanity.

The article provides an overview of the causes of the current environmental crisis, with three main sources being identifi ed: industrial development and large-scale agriculture, a rapidly growing global population, and environmental crime.The most serious environmental problems, such as global warming, air and soil pollution have also been characterised. The author briefl y charac-terises the defi nitions related to eco-criminology. The international commu-nity, governments, and NGOs are involved in improving the effectiveness of police cooperation in the fi ght against eco-crime, but it is still not effective enough.Environmental protection is currently one of the most important issues that humanity must address. The quality of our lives and maybe our surviv-al depend on it.

<div> <p>In recent times we have often received news such as about melting glaciers, sudden and torrential rain, storms, increased atmospheric temperatures, and forest fires. We have also observed some of these phenomena in our immediate vicinity. There is a frequently used expression among the public, 'the seasons are shifting'. </p> <p>Students have asked the reasons why these changes have been occurring and what about changes between the past and present. In order to understand these changes we all know that they need to understand global warming in the first place. To help them with this as an science teacher I have guided them to be capable of using experimental methods within project-based learning approaches. First they did preliminary literature surveys and then they designed an experiment. In the experiment, they tested the hypothesis that the water inside the bell JAR, which is coated with black cardboard, heats up more than the transparent one. In this way they began to investigate climate change due to greenhouse gases. </p> <p>In the experiment, two bell glasses were used to represent the atmosphere layers. One was intermittently covered with pieces cut out of black cardboard. Black cardboard was used to represent the greenhouse gas due since the black colour absorbs light. Two beakers of the same size were used, filled with water. A thermometer was placed inside and bell jars were turned upside down and put over the beakers. The two thermometers were used to measure the water temperature inside the beakers. </p> <p>The first apparatus is the control group (inside uncovered). The second apparatus is the experimental group (covered with independent black cardboard). In the experimental and observation stage, the independent variable is the bell jar; the dependent variable is the water temperature. The constant variables are the size of the jar, the size of the beaker, the amount of water and the ambient conditions. </p> <p>Having set up the apparatus, the initial temperature of water was measured and recorded. Students carried out the experiment on a sunny day by placing the apparatus in a sun-covered field. They recorded the data in the tables they completed periodically. Then they shared the results with participants at the science festival. </p> <p>In this way they began to investigate the impact of greenhouse gases on climate change.</p> </div>

Global warming is indeed a difficult international environmental problem to address: it has tragedy of the commons characteristics, and problems of time horizons and uncertainty. But previous efforts at international cooperation on other environmental issues such as ozone depletion suggest that international cooperation should be possible–though difficult–on climate change. Cooperation on issues that involve long time horizons suggests that the present generation is not calculating utility quite so narrowly as game theorists posit. Experience also suggests that successful cooperation on climate change will start with measures so small as to seem inconsequential, but will set in place an institutional and scientific process that will ultimately result in much more significant cooperative efforts. Rather than representing a tragedy, the Kyoto Protocol (or something much like it) could represent the beginnings of a process in which current generations take the first steps at collective action that dramatically improve the lives of future generations. Those who are concerned about the weakness of the Kyoto Protocol should first focus on persuading the United States to join-since this is the best way to let the process work and avoid a tragedy of the commons.
